California Public Utilities Commission Sub Meter Protocol Workshop George Bellino Project Engineer Infrastructure Commercialization 27 Oct 2011

Optimal Use Case Scenario The Customer plugs in anywhere to charge (120V Outlet/240V EVSE/DCFC) – at home, friends home, public, workplace, commercial, etc. The Utility is able to identify the PEV load associated to the Vehicle ID which is associated to a Utility customer account which is associated to the location’s Primary Meter. The PEV electricity consumption is separately measured using a sub meter which provides a recording of the total kWh usage measurement with time stamps (TOU). The Utility receives the sub meter electricity useage data with the association information - bills the customer account associated to the Vehicle ID at the appropriate EV rate; and subtracts the kWh useage from the associated Primary Meter owner’s account. 27 Oct 20112CPUC Sub Meter Protocol Workshop Other loads Sub Meter Smart Charging

Attributes Communications – standards based ability to collect energy consumption data and convey data to Utility accounting back office – Association – ability to connect sub meter to primary meter for subtractive billing Certification – ability to verify accuracy of sub meter measurements Standardization – prescribed national standards specifying requirements, technology implementation, and certification process Accountability – ownership and responsibility for certification, accounting, billing, data processing, aggregation services, etc. Cost Effective – least cost impact to consumer, utility, and providers 27 Oct 20113CPUC Sub Meter Protocol Workshop

On Vehicle Sub Metering Communications – SAE J2836/J2847/J2931 addressing PEV-Utility bi-directional communications messaging and protocols (PLC, Telematics, WiFi, etc.) – Capability to receive and respond to DR, load management, and Pricing signals – addresses Association (SEP2.0 Application Layer Standard) – Will support energy consumption TOU data collection and communications Association – Standards are implementing function as part of communications initialization process Vehicle ID associated to EUMD (Energy Unit Measurement Device/Sub Meter) and authentication/registration to the Premise Meter – On Vehicle Sub Meter permanently associated to PEV 27 Oct 2011CPUC Sub Meter Protocol Workshop4

On Vehicle Sub Metering Certification – Based on technology implementation – removable hardware device versus embedded software and microchip – Embedded software and microchip preferred for On Vehicle sub metering – OEMs are experts at vehicle certification processes - example: can be calibrated and certified using Service Technician Software Diagnostics tools. Standardization – Solution needs to be nationally standardized - commonized compatible solution for component/software technology, communications, and certification – standardized communications interfaces and data format – May require modifications (paradigm shifts) in policy and regulation as well as existing standards – example: revenue grade accuracy for sub meters versus utility owned primary meters/direct access – Single standard solution for PEV sub metering desired – avoid potential complexities with cascading sub meters 27 Oct 2011CPUC Sub Meter Protocol Workshop5

On Vehicle Sub Metering Accountability – Ownership and responsibility for certification, accounting, billing On Vehicle Sub Meter owned by the customer – responsible for vehicle sub meter calibration and certification – analogy: smog checks/regular maintenance checks OEM responsibility and Warranty implications TBD Who does billing – Aggregator/3 rd Party Clearing House Or Utility – Inter Utility accounting and billing processes a potential issue – Revenue stream for Aggregator/3 rd Party Clearing House – Variability in billing models – subscriber fee and time based – middle man between customer and Utility Cost Effectiveness – No out of pocket installation cost and external product price impact – No rate basing issues – Alleviates product variability potentially affecting compatibility – OEM challenge are the integration costs dependent on technology and certification requirements 27 Oct 2011CPUC Sub Meter Protocol Workshop6

On Vehicle Sub Metering Basic Advantages – Meter permanently associated to vehicle Supports potential roaming issues – Meters all levels of charging PEV energy consumption Supports requirement for validating and allocating LCFS credits – Potentially least cost impact Alleviates cost/price impacts for externalities – OEM telematics service providers can provide aggregator services through back office server cloud API to utility, HAN, 3 rd Party Energy Suppliers undergoing standardization – PEV-Utility Communications standards processes are in place – Less susceptible to tampering and vandalism 27 Oct 2011CPUC Sub Meter Protocol Workshop7
